Post-2007 Sony is the new pre-2006 Sony. It's only been seven days into the month, and already things are looking way up for the company.

The HD DVD / Blu-ray debate is not a done deal, but with Warner already siding with Blu-ray, what else is there to say? Forbes, known better for its predictions that don't come true than ones that do, says Paramount is next. Who cares anyway? The media already crowned Blu-ray the winner.

I wish more companies could agree on standards especially power cords and USB connectors.

Every other item in my home must have a different way to make a 2 prong power cable. Lets throw in USB how many different connections can they come up with?

The only error I see with Sony Memory stick is the premium price they tried keeping for the longest time. Since I own many SD memory cards for MP3 players, portable USB drives, and digital cameras I will continue to buy camera's that support SD memory. I have a feeling those who have Sony Memory Sticks will do the same. To each their own however Sony should take note this means I am more interested in Kodak digital cameras every time I upgrade and not Sony because of this.

Kudos goes to a company like Nintendo who decided to use a standard memory card for saved games instead of forcing everyone to purchase proprietary memory cards that never go down in price.
